one reportedly works in brown's united states senate office. what are the grounds for firing in his office any way? brown says the chanting is certainly something i don't condone, but he doesn't stop there. he actually repeats the attack, which inspired his staffers in the first place. he says the real offense is that warren said she was white and then checked the box saying that she was native american. then she changed her profile in her law directory once she made her tenure. so brown doesn't want to talk about massachusetts' economy, education or health care. he's fixated on elizabeth warren's racial heritage. in fact, he's launching this new attack ad. and race is the first thing talked about the in debate. >> warren claimed she was a native american, a person of color, and as you can see, she's not. i don't know, and neither do the viewers know, whether in fact she got ahead as a result of the checking of the box. >> senator brown is either tied or trailing in the latest polls, but he seems convinced this race issue will get him reelected
